THE FIGURES.
THE BRITIsHRRs CRY FRAUD

After the race Mr.. james Bell, princi.
pal owner of the Thistle, said that he was
not at all satisfied with the result. The
Thistle, he declared, had never moved SO
slowly through the water He was of the
opinion that there was som ething
wrong with the cutters BOTTOM" and
she would be hauled out of the water to
morrow with view TO finding what II
was.
He did not consider that a race had
been run, for that reason, and because the
wind was 80 shifting. The Volunteer
often had the advantage of breeze that
the Thistle did not feel. Besides, the ex-
cursion boats swashed the Thistle to q
damaging extent
Captain Barr, of the Thistle, held the
same vie VS.. He said that some OF the
crew had been notified anonymously that
the cutters bottom had been 'doctored," :"
and the truth would be ascertained before
Thursday, the day of the next race.
Captain Barr said he had sailed the This
tie every time she had been out, and he
never knew her to move SO badly on the
wind.
General Paine and Mr.. Edward Burgess,
of the Volunteer, took the victory quietly
but very happily. Captain Half said that
the reason that the Thistle sailed so much
faster before the start was that the Voluu.
teer did not have her centre board down,
on account of. shallow water inside OF
Buoy IS.
A BITTER DISAPPOINTMENT.
LONDON, Sept 27.--The yacht race at
New York excited little interest in Lon
don except in the city proper, where large
crowds assembled early in the evening
around the bulletin boards at the cable
offices, dispensing, however, before the re-
suit was announced. Yachtsmen were
interested, but the public paid no specia
attention to the race
On the Clyde. where people were keenly
interested in the result, betting WAS IL
favor of the Thistle. Cable dispatches
were published In the afternoon saying
that the Thistle would certainly win.
A letter from a member of the Thistle
crew was received, in which the writel
says: "The Americans may bounce
about the Volunteer, but their yachtsmer
know she has no chance"
The victory of the Volunteer surprised
the club men who were awaiting news o
the race. The result will be bitter dis
appointment to Scotch yachtmen.
GLASGOW, Sept. 27 1t has been de
cided to give the owners and designer o

Numbered with other questions that
nre argued by practical, sensible men,
rnl likely never TO come 10 any decided
lcment is the one, "Shall farm horses
ue shod or notY That this controversy
must be settled 10y each man for himself
lies in the fact that some horses under
C,Tain conditions can e. without shoes,
oud in truth are better v nOut them; but
that no horse under ala conditions can
work or travel barcfuotcd In an article
on this subject in The American AcriCul-
turist appears the testimony Of various in
diVidnals in different sections Of the
country.
correspondent writing from Iowa
considers it an unnatural proceeding to
shoe n horse. lie says;
"If one examines the hoof Of colt that
has never been shod it will be found that
there is a sharp edge on the under side.
The object of this Is that the animal may
20 on smooth roads. If the horse is never
shod this protection remains as long as
the animal lives, but in shocing il has to
be cut off and it will never grow rs per
feet again as it was naturally" This
correspondent believes that uushOd horses
can do all necessary farm work in both
winter and summer. a correspondent
from Ohio writes: "My advice is don't
shoe your horses. Keep the colts feet
properly trimmed while growing, as you
